I loved that beer. Is it old by the time it gets here or something?

What's my drinking window?


My rule of thumb for IPAs is 3 months.

And it holds well in the bottle like Maudite. No rush to drink them.

I picked up a pair. I assume they are solid shoes. I run in VFFs but I have been looking for some trail shoes for rocky conditions.

FBD will be a Lil Sumpin'

Third and possibly last BD - Rochefort 10.
Easily the best of the three.

I have no doubt.
I find that THA ages better than many IPAs.

I've had the 312 and it was OK, but nothing special. Never had the IPA. Matilda, Sophie and Bourbon County Stout are the best things I've tried from GI. Like Bells, they make some great beers but the entire lineup, which is extensive, has holes in it.

The IPA is underwhelming. Has a funny aftertaste. Couldn't nail it down, but wasn't a fan.

Wonder if we will ever get the specialty stuff or if that will stay in the distribution area it has always been.

FBD is an expedition stout. First time having this and really diggin it.

Drinking it alongside a creole étouffée.

I don't know. I have not seen any GI on the shelves in BR. Due to an overload of supply at the house I have not been beer shopping lately though.
